It is almost Halloween season, and it looks like we have the movie that we will all be talking about leading up to the big night. Plus, we have the inspiration for a new Halloween costume.
Nightmares of a maniac killer in a baby mask inspire a writer’s new script. But as his life begins to spiral out of control, he discovers Big Baby’s murderous rampage may be more than fiction.
Big Baby, which stars Chaz Bono and Terrifier’s David Howard Thornton, is coming to home video on September 7th. And did I mention that Chaz’s mom, Cher, is an executive producer on the film? As much as she loves her son, I don’t think she would support something she didn’t believe in.
Cher was at the Grammys yesterday to present Record of the Year, and also to receive her Grammy for Lifetime Achievement Award.
Since Cher is never boring, neither was this moment!
Trevor Noah presented her with the physical award, and she gave a heartfelt speech about it. Then, when she was done, she was supposed to read who was nominated for Record of the Year. Instead, she started to walk off the stage. So the host reminded her of what she was there to do.
After reading the nominees, it was time to announce the winner. She thought that the winner was going to be written on the teleprompter, but it was not.
So she read the envelope and revealed that the winner was Luther Vandross, who passed away 20 years ago.
Who won? Kendrick Lamar for his album Luther! Therefore, her mistake makes sense.
And with that, Cher turned a boring broadcast into something fun! Long live Cher and Luther Vandross!
Christmas is coming early on Saturday Night Live because Ariana Grande is hosting the final 2025 episode with CHER as the musical guest on December 20th. This has been the best combo since. I don’t know since! Kudos for making it happen. I just hope it doesn’t disappoint. Plus, you know they will do at least one skit together, and maybe another where Ariana does an impression of Cher. Maybe they can do a Freaky Friday thingy!
In other SNL news, Melissa McCarthy hosts as Dijon sings on December 6th. The following week, Josh O’Connor and Lily Allen do the same.
Fun fact: This is only the second time Cher has been a musical guest on SNL. The last time she belted out her songs on the variety show was 1987. And she hasn’t aged in nearly 40 years.
Oh, and not-so-fun fact for Cher: Grande wasn’t even alive in ’87; she made her debut in 1993. How Wicked is that?
Cher was born as Cheryl Sarkisian, but we only know her as Cher. So, have you ever wondered what name she has on her driver’s license, even though she hasn’t driven in a long time?
That was something that Jimmy Kimmel pondered, so he asked the legendary on his show yesterday if her last name is on her DL. She told him, “I don’t have a last name.”
Cher then explained that it was not easy to get that done. She had to prove that people would only know her as Cher. I agreed with Kimmel on this one; you would think all she would have to do is walk in, and they would be like Cher. But it was not that easy.
Then I agreed with her when Kimmel kept asking her random questions, and she told him, “This is stupid!” Gd, I love her!
Back to her being able to only go by one name, who else do you think who could do that? I say Madonna, Prince, Beyoncé, Bono, Adele and Zendaya.
Cher has been through a lot in her career, and yesterday, on The Tonight Show, she did something she probably never expected to do.
What was it? The singer and Jimmy Fallon clucked their way through three of her biggest hits, all while dressed as turkeys.
I believe that if Cher could turn back time, she would do it all over again because she looked like she was having so much fun even, if it looked stupid as all hell.
